June 27, 2012, The Local Music Show, featuring K9 Sniffies

This is not technically an Afraid of Daily Living broadcast. On Wednesday, June 27th, I hosted the Local Music Show, and while the cat's away, the mice shall play. By mice, I mean the K9 Sniffies, a band founded in the spring of 2011 by HJ Woijtowicz, two chums, and a girl he met on the internet (because she called his other band "post-ironic" in a blogpost), as a conceptual art band, the concept in question being "alcohol" and the self-hatred and recklessness of one who blacks out on the reg. The songs are easier than pissing in the driveway. I know because I played bass with them as K2 Spliffies in their basement to 6 of our most devoted friends. Their shows are anything but consistent. But they have included Fraham ploughing through the audience with a guitar that stopped working 2 songs ago, HJ opening a beer-can upside down and not noticing, a Hairem cover, Josh's glasses hanging on for dear life from the tip of his nose, assault, both verbal and physical, between the crowd and the band, a rotating crew of temp tambourinists, as well as unquantifiable amounts of shadiness and fuck-ups. Also, check out the beginning of hour two for an exclusive on-air interview with the K9s themselves. I had them answer questions selected at random from an Amer's take-out box. Amer's - great sandwiches. Oh yeah, they're on tour RIGHT now throughout the north-east.
